The people you surround yourself with have a big impact on your life. They can shape how you see the world, how you think about yourself, and even how successful you are. So it’s important to choose your tribe carefully. Here are a few things to keep in mind as you pick the people who will be part of your inner circle.
Think about what kind of person you want to be. The people you associate with have a big influence on the person you become. If you want to be someone who is kind, successful, and driven, then surround yourself with people who embody those qualities. On the other hand, if you find yourself constantly around people who are negative, gossipy, and lazy, it will be harder for you to live up to your own potential. So think about the kind of person you want to be and look for friends who will help you become that person.
Consider shared values and interests. It’s important to find friends who share your core values and interests. This doesn’t mean that you have to agree on everything—in fact, it’s healthy to have friends with different perspectives so that you can learn from each other. But if you value honesty, loyalty, and hard work, it will be easier to connect with people who feel the same way. And if you share interests like music, sports, or books, it can be fun to explore those things together.
Look for positive energy. The people you spend time with should make you feel good about yourself—not bad. If someone regularly puts you down or makes you feel like you’re not good enough, they’re not worthy of your Friendship. Life is too short to waste time on negative people. So look for friends who radiate positive energy and make you feel good about yourself. These are the people who will lift you up when you’re down and help you reach your potential.
The company we keep has a big impact on our lives—so it’s important to choose our tribe carefully. We should surround ourselves with people who make us want to be better versions of ourselves and who share our values and interests. And most importantly, we should look for friends who radiate positive energy. These are the people who will make our lives richer and more fulfilling. So take some time to think about the kind of tribe YOU want to be part of—and then go out and find them!

It can be difficult to know what type of Mala beads will best fit the person you’re buying them for. You might feel like there are too many options, and they all look so beautiful and different!
There is one thing though: it doesn’t matter how fancy or simple a mala necklace’s design is. If it is meant as a gift, then every detail matters in that process. The meaning behind each Mala holds more significance than just aesthetics–depending on the journey of the intended recipient. Where should you begin? It’s really simple.
When you buy a Mala necklace for someone else, there are six things that should come into consideration.
INTENTION
A Mala is like a talisman for the wearer. It captures their intentions and helps them focus on what they want in life, no matter where it may take them or how long that journey might be!
Mala beads assist us in focusing our thoughts on a goal, so make sure you know where this person is currently in their life. What is their current state? What challenges do they face? What problems are they dealing with?
What are the things they aspire for? What will make them happy? Wearing a mala is meant to record and keep an intention in mind. Wearing a mala is intended to preserve and record your intention.
APPEARANCE
After you have settled on an intention for the gift, it’s time to consider the physical attributes of the Mala. Some mala beads are strung with 100% gemstones, some with sacred seeds, and some styles have metal embellishments. There is also a variety of tassel colors.
When it comes to appearance, one of the most crucial aspects to consider is “lifestyle.” Are they athletic? Do they participate in sports? Will they wear it casually or use it exclusively for meditation? Do they frequent the beach or the mountains? Match the Mala with the recipient’s lifestyle.
INTUITION
The final important consideration is your intuition, your gut feeling, and what your heart tells you to give. Go with what feels right at the moment. It is always a good idea to gift from the heart. The best gifts come from a place of love and connection. If you put thought into it and make sure the mala is coming from a good place, the person receiving it will feel that too! Mala beads are not just a piece of jewelry but rather personal amulets, each with its own special meaning. It is important to choose a mala that will resonate with the wearer on many different levels.
When you find the right mala, you’ll know it! There is no doubt about it. It will speak to you.
We hope this guide has been helpful in your search for the perfect mala gift! If you have any questions, please feel free to reach out to us! We would be happy to assist you further.
After you’ve considered all variables, you’ll undoubtedly discover a mala that fits, resonates, and reflects your friend’s interests–something that they will really treasure because you have considered many things when you bought it.

I had a gig two or three days before them and I think I left them at this venue. It turned out to be the worst, most disastrous performance that I have ever done. Well, apart from one really early on when I was doing a gig in Angel and I got so drunk I fell off my chair. But I got some new crystals now and everything’s been going well.” —The Sun, March 2016
Andrew Keegan, Actor
On water crystals used at a Sunday service:
“We’re very, very aware of the shift that’s happening in the mind and the heart, and everybody is on that love agenda.

Andy Warhol, American Visual Artist
“I’m starting to think that crystals don’t work. Because look what’s happened lately when they’re supposed to be protecting me — my rug has cancer from the moths, I stepped on a beautiful old plastic ring and crushed it, and I was assaulted at the book signing. But I’ve got to believe in something, so I’ll continue with the crystals. Because things could always be worse.” —The Andy Warhol Diaries, November, 1985 entry
Anne Hathaway, Actress
“[Los Angeles] was never really my thing. I’d been out there for 14 years and never really felt anything for it and then we started to make some awesome friendships.

Crystal Renn, American Plus Size Model
When asked about her biggest indulgence: “Going to really exotic and strange locations.

Heidi Pratt, American TV Personality
“I was not in the right mind frame to make that decision [for plastic surgery]. I was in so much pain. I was literally crying every day … I felt the crystals were helping.

I didn’t even know what the stone’s properties were, I was just like, That’s beautiful; I bet it does great shit; I want it. I was bidding up to $400! Then a friend came over, and I forgot about bidding and lost. That’s God telling me, ‘You need to calm the fuck down. You don’t need that — you don’t even know what that does.’ … I understand why people believe it’s a placebo effect — there’s no physical evidence that crystals heal you — but, to me, that makes it better. That I can trick myself into thinking I’m healing myself — that makes me feel like I’m a goddess.” —Marie Claire, May 2016

Anyway, she was going to…a crystal fair that they have, and she picked up these gorgeous amethyst stones for my house.

“You may have read in some press articles that when I’m asked what’s in my handbag … I often mention a crystal wand or a Rose Quartz crystal. My crystal wand is incredibly special to me, and is one of my most cherished items. It’s made of Clear Quartz and is studded with Rose Quartz. Clear Quartz is a great stone for gathering, directing and transmitting energy … it can also transform negative energy into positive energy, and Rose Quartz is a wonderful stone to heal and protect the heart, balance emotions, release stress and tension, and encourage love and self-esteem. Crystals can be used in many different methods of healing. In addition to using on a specific area of the body, or on Chakras points to locate blockages to cleanse and heal them, they can also be used in massage. Massaging the body with a crystal helps to release tension from the body, while at the same time the stone’s healing energy is transferred to the body. I hold my crystal during meditation, prayer, deep belly breathing, and use it to infuse my Luxurious Rosehip Body Oil with positive vibrations prior to a massage. I also sleep with it nearby so I’m constantly receiving its special healing energies.” —KORA Organics, February 2015

It’s a lucky angel.’ And it’s just like my lucky little thing. My grandmother had just passed away and her favorite color was pink so I was like, I wonder if this is a sign that she’s with me or her saying hello, so I just keep that in my wallet.”
Nat Wolff, Actor
“I’ve learned a lot about a lot of things from her [Shailene Woodley]. She convinced Ansel [Elgort] and me not to wear deodorant.

Shirley MacLaine, Actress
“The first time someone gave me a natural quartz crystal I laid it in the palm of my hand to examine it. I was fascinated. Not only was it beautiful: it seemed to have dimensions within dimensions, reflections within reflections. I held it up to the sun and allowed myself to sort of go inside it…In a darkened room I placed the crystal given to me at eye level on a high table. Then I lit a candle behind it and sat down next to it. I gazed into the crystal and projected positive and loving thought forms into it. I had the feeling that they reverberated back to me. It was very pleasant. Then I tried negative and angry thought forms. I had the feeling that that is what I got back. I became uncomfortable. I made my choice. For an hour I sat in front of my crystal with the candle behind it and just gazed into it with thoughts that were as pleasant as I could conjure up. It was a wonderful evening. And I slept better than I had in weeks.” —Going Within, 1989

Perhaps you have heard of the term “Ayurveda” before, but not quite sure what it entails. Some know Ayurveda as “the sister science of yoga” which gives you a pretty good idea that it has something to do with ancient Eastern practices and traditions. Originating from India over 5,000 years ago, Ayurveda is a system for total body health and wellness that is still widely practiced today. “Ayur” means life and “Veda” means knowledge, so Ayurveda literally translates to “knowledge of life.”
Also known as “The Science of Life,” Ayurveda is based on the principle that good health is achieved by balancing the mind, body, and spirit. While there are many different schools of thought within Ayurveda, the basics are relatively simple to understand. In this blog post, we’ll give you a brief overview of Ayurveda and how you can use it to improve your health and well-being.
Ayurveda is not only a system of medicine but a way of life. It offers a holistic approach to health and well-being that includes diet, exercise, meditation, yoga, and massages. This system of medicine also emphasizes preventative care. practitioners believe that it is better to prevent disease than to treat it once it has developed.
The Three Pillars of Health
Ayurveda teaches that there are three pillars of health: proper diet, positive thinking, and regular exercise. Let’s take a closer look at each of these pillars:
Proper Diet: According to Ayurveda, food is medicine. This means that what you eat has a direct impact on your health and well-being. To achieve optimum health, it is important to eat fresh, whole foods that are nourishing and easily digested. Processed foods, sugary drinks, and alcohol should be avoided as they can lead to imbalance and disease.
Positive Thinking: Ayurveda teaches that the mind and body are interconnected. This means that your thoughts can have a direct impact on your physical well-being. To maintain balance, it is important to focus on positive thinking and develop a healthy relationship with yourself and others. Regular meditation can help quiet the mind and promote feelings of peace and calm.
Regular Exercise: Exercise is key to maintaining balance in the body. Ayurvedic practitioners recommend moderate exercise such as yoga or walking for 30 minutes each day. strenuous exercise should be avoided as it can lead to physical and mental exhaustion. It is also important to listen to your body and rest when needed.
What are the Three Doshas?
With an emphasis on balance and preventative measures, this natural approach to healthcare is based on the belief that we are all made of the same five elements found in nature: earth, water, fire, air, and space. These five elements combine in our bodies to create three different energies or “doshas” known as Vata, Pitta, and Kapha.
Vata dosha governs movement in the body and is associated with the elements of air and space. Vata energy is light, dry, cold, moving, and irregular. This dosha controls all movement in the mind and body including blood flow, elimination of toxins, nerve impulses, and breathing. Imbalance in Vata can manifest as anxiety, fearfulness, pain, bloating, and constipation.
Pitta dosha governs transformation and metabolism in the body and is associated with the element of fire. Pitta energy is hot, sharp, intense, liquid, and acidic. It controls metabolism in the body including digestion, absorption of nutrients, and body temperature. Imbalance in Pitta can result in indigestion, heartburn, diarrhea, ulcers, and inflammations such as arthritis or sinusitis.
Kapha dosha governs structure and stability in the body and is associated with water. Kapha energy is heavy wet, dense, slow, cold, oily, smooth, soft, and solid. It controls growth in the body- cell regeneration, weight gain/loss, and lubrication. Imbalance can create respiratory problems such as allergies or asthma, congestion, and excess mucous.
The three doshas are in constant flux – they are always changing and moving. However, there are times when they can become imbalanced. When this happens, it can lead to disease and other health problems. Balance is key! An imbalance in any one of these doshas can lead to problems both physically and mentally. That’s why it’s important to learn about all three doshas and how you can keep them in balance.
To maintain balance, Ayurvedic practitioners recommend certain lifestyle changes as well as taking specific herbs and dietary supplements.
Once you know your dosha type, you can start making dietary and lifestyle changes to support a more balanced state. For example- if you are mostly Vata energy ( like me! ) you might want to add more warming spices to your diet and make sure to get enough rest. If you find yourself out of balance in any way, Ayurveda provides easy and natural solutions that can help get you back on track.
Dietary Recommendations
Ayurvedic dietary recommendations are different for each dosha type. In general, however, Ayurveda recommends eating fresh, organic foods that are cooked with healthy fats such as ghee (clarified butter). Dairy products, such as yogurt and milk, should also be included in the diet as they are thought to be tridoshic – meaning they balance all three doshas.
Other dietary recommendations include:
-Eating breakfast within one hour of waking up
-Avoiding snacking between meals
-Eating meals at regular intervals
-Chewing food thoroughly before swallowing
Making small changes in your diet and lifestyle can go a long way toward promoting balance and good health according to the principles of Ayurveda. Ayurveda is a holistic approach to health that focuses on balancing the mind, body, and spirit. By following the three pillars of proper diet, positive thinking, and regular exercise, you can improve your overall health and well-being.
